    Setting windows10 1703 start Layout Not working


    Customize start Layout Issue

    To customize the windows 10 start menu and then use PowerShell to import it so that default users or new users start menu is set using the following commands and editing defaultlayout.xml and tried exporting as Bin FOR MY WINDOWS 10 1703 but it still doesn't work

    When I import the layout it throws error

    Import-StartLayout : The file C:\Users\Public\layoutModification1.bin is not a valid layout file
    At line:1 char:1
    + Import-StartLayout C:\Users\Public\layoutModification1.bin -MountPath ...
    + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Croatian keyboard layout is missing in Win10 installation

    I made Windows 10 64bit ISO file by tool downloaded from web page
    https://www.microsoft.com/hr-hr/software-download/windows10     and started clean installation. The problem is that Croatian keyboard layout is missing in the list of layouts. There are three combobox selections, 1st for language, 2nd for regional settings
    and there I can find Croatia, but in 3rd for keyboard layout there is not Croatian layout.

    Is this mistake? Because that layout was there for all previous Win versions. What should I select instead of Croatian layout?

    Regards,

    Export-Startlayout possible bug 1607

    Just in case anyone gets this issue.

    Set up Reference VM, image with normal image, disable pushing out a layout via GPO.

    Logon as a local admin, a local profile.

    Design your layout.

    Run Export-StartLayout.

    Put the xml file somewhere where users have read access. \\server\layouts\layout.xml

    GPP the xml file to the c drive to a folder where the users have read access. c:\it\layout.xml

    GPP any shortcuts into C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs on the client PCs. . Make sure all paths match up to when you created the layout. You can edit the xml, but you cant use unc paths.

    Add the xml file to the gpo for the start layout. c:\it\layout.xml

    I've only done this on the computer not user setting.

    I left the existing start menu redirect on.

    Hopefully this will fixed in 1703.
